Feeling: Reflective

Surfaced July 31, 2021. Recorded on one side of a cassette - the other side contains Cocteau Twins. First five songs only.

Until now, no audio or video recordings of this gig were in circulation. This was the last total mystery in the live Coil canon. But, half this gig and most of 2002-10-19 Stockholm remain missing. We still have a bit of work to do. ;P

2. The Last Rites of Spring

3. Are You Shivering?

4. Amethyst Deceivers (Version 3)

5. A Warning from the Sun

"Live Four" phase.

On August 14th 2002, Brainwashed reported: “Russian promoters and record label Feelee will be welcoming Coil back to their country for two concerts this autumn. The shows will be taking place in Moscow (Sept 26th at DK Gorbunova) and Kaliningrad (Sept 29th at a venue t.b.a.). Opening both shows will be CoH.”

In 2009, Zvuki published a “declaration of intent” Coil sent Feelee regarding the upcoming 2002-09-26 Tochka show, to be shared with fans. Roughly translated: “This next Coil appearance will be more lyrical, poetic, and more mindful than our previous ones, featuring brand new Coil songs as well as classics such as ‘Ostia (The Death of Pasolini)’ and ‘Are You Shivering?’ The past year has been a year of change and revolution for us, for our friends and for the entire planet. Our upcoming concerts will be our response to the dangerous and frightening state of the world today. Our concerts are a fragile, magically directed display of our anger: we will use a synchronized combination of video and music, which is our poetic response to personal pain and more general woe, in the hope of generating and inspiring a positive response to the situation around us. In addition, we will, for the first time, be presenting songs from our new album The World Ended A Long Time Ago. As always, we look forward to seeing the wonderful Russian people.”

John was surprisingly talkative, here, interacting with the audience a lot.
